TFS4JIRA will STOP initial synchronization when certain number of errors is encountered. By default, this value is set to 10 errors. To raise this value, please follow the below steps.

  1. Log in to your Windows Server or VM where TFS4JIRA Self Hosted is installed.

  2. Go to the location where web.config is placed, default location: C:\inetpub\wwwroot\tfs-jira-synchronizer

  3. Edit web.config

    1. find the following line: <add key="InitialSyncErrorLimit" value="10" />

    2. change the value from 10 to a designated value

    3.  

  4. Save web.config. This will recycle the application pool.

  5. Because the application pool was recycled, re-login is required.

IMPORTANT. web.config file is overwritten during TFS4JIRA application update.
